Where do the inborn values fit? Is it "3.2.4. Innate"?

It would also be useful to give examples of values and where they fit, or misfit. For example, if I value kindness, did I learn to value it from watching others, was born valuing it, developed it by analyzing the consequences, or maybe I believe that I value it while alieving taking advantage of others by showing kindness? Or vice versa. Or maybe it's a topic for a separate post.
